Prosecutors said that the former payroll manager of a Montgomery County non-profit organization provided reentry services to recently imprisoned individuals and was accused of stealing more than $154,000 from the organization.

Anglea Nadeau, 42, of Royersford, is accused of stealing funds from the Kintock Group upstream of Dublin over a three-year period from 2017 to 2020. She allegedly issued an unauthorized check to a former employee and changed the direct deposit information to send the check to a bank account in her name for personal use.

The Kintec Group has residential and non-residential locations in Philadelphia, Newark, Patterson and Bridgetown. Its services include helping people who are suffering from drug abuse and other people looking for job opportunities after serving their sentences in prison.

According to investigators, Nardo was employed in the office of a non-profit company in Fort Washington under the name of Angela Claussen. The organization discovered a suspected theft in December, involving a sum of US$12,000, and notified the police. The management found that a former employee was still receiving salary after applying for unemployment benefits, and the money was deposited in the same account that Nadeau used for his direct deposit.

When faced with the alleged theft, investigators said that Nardo apologized to the company’s management, blamed his actions on personal issues, and was terminated by the Kintock Group.

Further investigation revealed that Nardo used the former employees’ files and converted their records to send funds to her, thereby issuing 88 unauthorized checks to her bank account. Allegedly, the total amount of the theft was US$154,535.68, and the relevant authorities found 1,626 debit cards in the account through card transactions or cash withdrawals.

Nadeau was charged with 185 felony counts, including theft, forgery, identity theft and related crimes. The hearing was originally scheduled to be held on June 4.
